The new Chipeta signal in Montrose went live on Wednesday. Per a previous Montrose Daily Press report, the long-anticipated traffic signal at Chipeta Road and Highway 550 is a response to increased traffic volumes over the years at the intersection. A 2020 traffic study cited in an October 2021 traffic analysis report pointed to the need for a traffic signal under the existing volumes. CDOT will monitor the signal for the next several days to make any necessary adjustments to the timing. Motorists are asked to use caution while adjusting to the new traffic pattern in the area. While Montrose County and the City of Montrose are both stakeholders in the intersection, CDOT owns the U.S. 550 right-of-way and serves as the primary permitting agency.
